PhysObj:CalculateForceOffset#546355

<function name="CalculateForceOffset" parent="PhysObj" type="classfunc"> <description>Calculates the linear and angular impulse on the center of mass of the object for an offset impulse. The outputs can be directly used with <page>PhysObj:ApplyForceCenter</page> and <page>PhysObj:ApplyTorqueCenter</page>, respectively. **Be careful to convert the angular impulse to world frame if you are going to use it with ApplyTorqueCenter.**</description> <realm>Shared</realm> <args> <arg name="impulse" type="Vector">The impulse acting on the object in `kg*source_unit/s`. (World frame)</arg> <arg name="position" type="Vector">The location of the force in world coordinates (`source units`)</arg> <arg name="position" type="Vector">The location of the impulse in world coordinates (`source units`)</arg> </args> <rets> <ret name="linearImpulse" type="Vector">The calculated linear impulse on the physics object's center of mass in `kg*source_unit/s`.
